Root:1 Sauvignon Blanc
Wine Description
The growing season in the Casablanca Valley was marked by slightly cooler temperatures in the spring with low rainfall. Vines were delayed in their
growth cycle, but flower set and small, high quality clusters soon emerged. Low temperatures helped to preserve the delicate aromas of this white varietal,
revealing truly outstanding quality.
